DESCRIPTION

POSITIONAL ARGUMENTS
SECTION/PROPERTY
The property to be set. Note that SECTION/ is optional while referring to properties in the core section.
VALUE
The value to be set.
FLAGS
--scope SCOPE
The scope flag determines which configuration file is modified by this operation. The files are read (and take precedence) in the following order:
workspace
The workspace based configuration file is based on your current working directory. You can set project specific configuration here that will only take effect when working within that project’s directory. You cannot set this value if you are not currently within a gcloud workspace. This will override all values from any other configuration files.
user
The user based configuration file applies only to the current user of the system. It will override any values from the installation configuration.
installation
The installation based configuration file applies to all users on the system that use this version of the Cloud SDK. If the SDK was installed by an administrator, you will need administrator rights to make changes to this file.
GLOBAL FLAGS
--format FORMAT
Specify a format for printed output. By default, a command-specific human-friendly output format is used. Setting this flag to one of the available options will serialize the result of the command in the chosen format and print it to stdout. Supported formats are: json, text, yaml.
--help
Display detailed help.
--project PROJECT_ID
The Google Cloud Platform project name to use for this invocation. If omitted then the current project is assumed.
--quiet, -q
Disable all interactive prompts when running gcloud commands. If input is required, defaults will be used, or an error will be raised.
--trace-token TRACE_TOKEN
Token used to route traces of service requests for investigation of issues.
-h
Print a summary help and exit.
EXAMPLES
To set the project property in the core section, run:
$ gcloud config set project myProject
To set the zone property in the compute section, run:
$ gcloud config set compute/zone zone3
